The Ministry of Health (Ghana) has suspended the Principal of the College of Nursing, Nkanchina, Fredrick Anaba, over alleged irregularities involving student admissions and the introduction of unapproved academic programmes.
This follows a query issued by the Ministry on February 19, 2026 regarding the institution’s 2025/2026 admissions process.
In a statement on Thursday, on March 12, 2026, the Ministry said the suspension takes immediate effect and will remain in place while a comprehensive administrative investigation is conducted into the matter.
According to the Ministry, it reviewed the response submitted by the Principal and subsequently decided that a full investigation was necessary to determine the circumstances surrounding the alleged over-admission of students and the introduction of programmes that had not received official approval.
As part of interim measures, Mr. Anaba has been directed to hand over the administration and management of the college to the Acting Vice Principal to ensure the continued smooth operation of the institution.
The Ministry reaffirmed its commitment to enforcing strict compliance with approved admission quotas and accredited academic programmes across all health training institutions in the country.
Authorities say further updates will be provided once the investigation is concluded.
